Abstract
The aim of this research is to investigate the role of women in public administration at Kandahar University in Afghanistan. The chapter collects information through questionnaires among local university students and staff to identify factors that can contribute to women playing a more significant role in public administration and suggest recommendations aimed at boosting the role of women. Additionally, the research explores the reasons why women currently have limited involvement in areas related to public administration and the local government system in Kandahar. It also examines the challenges faced by local women and propose ways in which the government can address these issues and provide employment and higher education opportunities. Lastly, the research emphasizes the need for the Afghan government to ensure the safety and security of women within government institutions. The ultimate goal of this research is to contribute to the advancement of women's rights in Afghanistan and empower them to hold senior positions in government agencies, both in Kandahar and nationwide.
